We show that the yeast Ndc80 tail is required for timely mitotic progression and accurate chromosome segregation. The tail is essential when cells are limited for Dam1, demonstrating a redundant function for the Ndc80 and Dam1 complexes in vivo.}, issn = {0016-6731}, URL = {https://www.genetics.org/content/192/2/753}, eprint = {https://www.genetics.org/content/192/2/753.full.pdf}, journal = {Genetics} }
